Runeglaive is terrible now

Most items have a 2:1 ap to ad ratio. Deathcap has 120 ap while IE has 65 ad for instance,

Riot raised the price of runeglaive to make it the most expensive jungling item in the game while lowering the amount of ap on it. Warrior has 60 ad for a lower price. Runeglaive has 40 ap.

Why pick an ap in the jungle anymore? Absolute joke.

Runeglaive offers both bonus AP and an extra AP ratio. Warrior offers only bonus AD.

Now, that's not to say that their respective numbers don't need tweaking, but the two are not directly comparable.

Bringing this argument back, because i'm feeling the AP jungle trouble in the preseason. The issue isn't with whether it's a good item overall right now the problem is it's inaccessible to most AP jungles because of the cost to get it. Especially since AP junglers are by-and-large the squishiest, most invadable of the jungler. I have to propose they change the structure of the build path. Make runeglaive the only jungle item for which you can upgrade again (well except devourer) after buying the enchant and thus they can let AP junglers buy into runeglaive earlier.
